Birdhouses, Bickering & Blind Dates: A Romantic Comedy

Birdhouses, Bickering & Blind Dates is a small-town romantic comedy about craftsmanship, chemistry, and the deeply inconvenient reality of falling for the one person you keep ending up next to. Woody Oakes agreed to one thing: build the display birdhouses for Dalton's spring fundraiser. He did not agree to committees, matchmaking, seating charts, or being repeatedly trapped in "optional" social situations by Maggie and Martha. Dr. Griffin Wheeler thought he was sponsoring a charming community event. Instead, he gets assigned to co-manage volunteers, judge birdhouses, survive youth craft day, and keep one gruff, maddeningly competent woodworker from abandoning the entire thing halfway through setup. Woody likes things that are practical, precise, and built to last. Griffin is polished, patient, and far too good at handling people. They clash over charm versus craftsmanship, structure versus sentiment, and whether a fundraiser should prioritize beauty or function. Unfortunately for both of them, the more they argue, the more obvious it becomes that they work disturbingly well together. Then a rainstorm traps them in Woody's workshop, a gossip chain starts circulating the wrong story, and one disastrous blind-date dinner makes it impossible to ignore what has been quietly taking shape between them all along. In a town where nothing is ever truly optional, Woody and Griffin are about to learn that love might be less about grand gestures and more about showing up, paying attention, and building something real. Set in Dalton, Maine, Birdhouses, Bickering & Blind Dates is a warm, funny MM romance full of meddling townspeople, community chaos, quiet longing, and a happily ever after.
